Abstract

The difficulty of force relations, workpiece deformation can be caused by a combination of factors. The most common method has been used in analyzing workpiece deformation and fixturing forces by using finite element analysis. Using insufficient punch force gave rise to wrinkled and or torn of the workpiece during the deep drawing process and application of too much punch force also would result unnecessary defects and high contact deformation to the workpiece. The aims of this research were to design a deep drawing die and determine whether a deep drawing process is able to reduce or not in producing a brass socket. By using Explicit Dynamic Analysis from ANSYS software, the result of the Finite Element Analysis for new design of deep drawing die will be obtained. From the result, the maximum punch force of deep drawing die was known and able to reduce the deep drawing process to produce the brass socket. As a result, the new design of deep drawing die presents the shortest process of deep drawing in producing the brass socket with highest productivity, smallest cycle time, less manpower and lowest cost compared to existing design with the same value of punch force.
